It's certainly a new day and a new look for the Flyers. Chuck Fletcher is in the GM booth, just over two weeks into his new job. Scott Gordon will be behind the bench as the Flyers interim head coach. A new face will be in goal too.
With all of that happening, the Flyers get back to action following a disappointing road trip that forced the team's hand to make a coaching change. They take on the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday night looking to start anew with a win.
Game time is at 7 p.m.
